Lou's MIK26

[RRRR4 (Lou Luczu)]

OK, I have given youse guys a good enough head start. Time to come up with an idea.
So I went down to the basement and came up with a Shortline Passenger car and an extra MDC Diesel.
I remember old picture of steam trains running on New York City streets, That is my inspiration, so here it goes:

Obligatory napkin drawing on a paper towel.

The engine.

The passenger compartment. Now for a little bit of trimming here, a little bit of forcefit there.

While procrastinating firing up the snowblower, I worked on my MIK project.
A little better fit of the engine inside the passenger car shell.

A better closeup.

I did manage to paint the engine for more contrast.

Oh well, time to get the warm clothes on and see if I can make a dent in the driveway.

Looking good Lou! What are the roof tanks made out of?

[RRRR4 (Lou Luczu)]

They are the plastic tanks that were on top of the engine originally.

[Jalicunning (Jim Cunningham)]

Thanks - I didn’t clock that you said it was an MDC diesel. I wasn’t familiar with that brand but now I am. I like the looks of the “Big Hustler” and its’ roof-top tanks.

In remembrance of our one and only Dave “Hollywood” Marconi, I have decided to name this craft after him.

What a lovely tribute to Mr. Marconi!

Now Lou, just remind us, it’s hairspray first then the powders?

Just a suggestion: spray with hairspray, then powder, then hairspray again.

How you do dat?
20 word minimum.

Normally, I’d just blame Rooster for my LSC source material.

In this case, I just pulled it off the corporate website.

Thanks for asking.

Apologies Lou. I put up the wrong link.
